Bread?
So I've become in the last couple years a baker, I like to make a standard sour dough and american "honey wheat" type bread for the house. I have a Kitchenaid Stand Mixer, and I work from home one day a week, so I take advantage of the time to make the starter over night. Anybody else bake bread?

Re: Bread?
I bake a bit of bread in a dutch oven. Nothing too special like you probably do though.
3 cups of self-rising flour, 2 tbsp sugar, and a 12oz can of my favorite brew. Bake it in the dutch oven for a while and voila - you have warm, fresh bread at the camp.

Re: Bread?
I love breadmaking, but I've fallen out of the habit as my youngest son (CIA culinary grad) and his SO (CIA baking grad) bring us every imaginable bread that I can't compete with.

Re: Bread?
I've started trying to make bread more often, in part to use up some of the spent grains from brewing. But I'm lazy and use a bread machine.

Re: Bread?
Yeah brewing beer is fun, but it's so much work and waiting; bread is kind of a fast forward version of home brew. I baked for a few years all our bread, but in the last couple months since the house has been under serious renovation I've slacked off a bit (lost the scale weighing urea in the garage I think). But just got another scale so I'll be back at it shortly I hope.
I need to get a sour dough starter going again, took me a month to get it really going, was running for a few years good and then I let it dry up...
